      Pros

      - Transparent and honest leadership at the top levels - Certain managers are receptive to feedback - Office and building perks, while not Google-level, are pretty good - Some teams work great with good managers. I was not on the those teams but I can attest that pockets of this company operate well.

      Cons

      - Workload is at time overwhelming. 80 hour weeks were not uncommon. No OT, either, so I was not compensated for the extra work. Sometimes it was expected to pull a 60 hour week and any attempt to implement strategies to lessen the load were waved off as complaining. - The tech stack is at least a decade behind current industry practices - Middle management often focuses on metrics over employee satisfaction - Work/life balance is nonexistent. Don't be surprised if you're pulled into something on a Saturday morning or a Sunday afternoon - You will be underpaid. I did some research after the fact and given my experience level and role I should have been paid almost $30K - $40K higher. - DE&I efforts are a lot of talk and no action. There is little to no diversity in the tech orgs and colloquially I've heard a lot of women complain about the behavior of other employees.

      Always appreciate the time any current or former employee takes to provide feedback. Bullhorn is committed to investing in the critical areas of our employee vision & journey, and will continue to do so. We have a FT DE&I Program Manager who has been engaging with leadership and employees across the organization to ensure that Bullhorn's culture is a place of inclusion and equity. Yes, there is a general lack of diversity in the tech industry, and change doesn't happen overnight, but we are committed to both our longer term goals, as well an making impact for our employees in the short term. Additionally, I would encourage anyone who is having an issue with another employee to connect with their HR Business Partner. We have zero tolerance for behavior that is negatively impacting the well-being of others and my team is committed to ensuring that we address issues as they arise. I have an open door policy if you'd ever like to confidentially connect! - Kelley Morse, VP, Talent & BPs

      Pros

      -Brand is well-known, Bullhorn has established their position in the market, navigated numerous highs and lows through the years, and remains at the top -Constantly evolves with the industry, feels like the business strategy is ahead of the curve and not behind the curve -Dynamic and innovative, I learn new things constantly and I am rarely bored here -Consistently promotes from within and encourages career growth via ad-hoc opportunities and stretch projects, invests in talent via leadership programs -Culture of excellence, attracts high-achievers, high standards are balanced with the flexibility of a remote-first environment and trust, leaders treat you like adults and empower you to manage your own time and work -The core values are aligned with my personal values, and employees actually live them (leadership included) -The people are the best: Agile, collaborative, smart, innovative, and they CARE about each other, about the work, and about the industry; global workforce offers incredible opportunities to learn about and work with other people toward a common goal

      Cons

      -Bullhorn changes and evolves with the industry, which sometimes causes shifts in projects, priorities, and teams. If you don't like change and/or can't connect your day-to-day work to the bigger picture strategy of a company and pivot accordingly, this isn't the place for you. The expectations and pace aren't for everybody (but 10/10 would recommend to the right person).

      This is a really terrific review, and is one of the accurate portrayals of our company. For all the PROS, the cons are real - we move quickly, and a certain type of talent thrives here. I hope you continue to love it and feel energized by where we are going - if not, you know where to find me!! - Kelley Morse, CPO

      Pros

      Approachable leadership that leads by example Excellent managers Top notch culture and people Flexible and remote work options Great work/life balance Unlimited PTO Solid health benefits + 401K Mentorship program Always evolving - keeps you on your toes Constant learning opportunities

      Cons

      Always evolving can also be a con - while I personally thrive in this setting, the constant change can (and has been) not ideal for some, especially in the last few years.

      This is an incredibly thoughtful review. What sticks with me is the part on seasons and living through each of them. Getting through winter makes the summer feel just that much better, and while you're toughing it out, the relationships only deepen in times of challenge. It's a really good analogy. Thanks for giving me a few to mull on this morning. Hope you continue to love it here, thrive here through all the seasons ahead! - Kelley Morse, CPO
